All Users are expected to review and comply with those guidelines before travel.

22. Changes to These Terms
- Right to Update: The Company may amend or update these Terms, the applicable Rate Cards, or any related policies (including privacy, refund, or operational policies) from time to time to reflect service improvements, regulatory changes, or business requirements.
- Notice of Changes: Updated Terms will be posted on the Company’s official website or digital platforms with a revised “Last Updated” date. For material changes—those that meaningfully affect Users’ rights or obligations, such as pricing structure, dispute-resolution terms, or data-processing practices—the Company will provide additional notice (for example, by email, SMS, in-product banner, or pop-up).
- Effective Date & Prospectivity: Unless otherwise stated in the notice, all changes take effect prospectively from their effective date and will not apply retroactively to completed Services.
- Acceptance & Continuation of Use: By continuing to use the Services after the effective date of an update, Users agree to the revised Terms. If a User does not agree to an update, they must stop using the Services before the effective date and, where applicable, close their account.
- Arbitration & Governing Law Changes: Any modification to arbitration, venue, or governing-law provisions will apply only to disputes that arise after the effective date of such change, unless the User expressly agrees otherwise in writing.
- Institutional & Government Partners: For schools, hospitals, corporations, or government entities operating under signed service agreements, material changes will be communicated in accordance with the notice procedure defined in the applicable contract or procurement framework. Updates to non-contractual operational documents (such as Rate Cards or add-ons) may take effect immediately upon publication.
- Legal Compliance: Where applicable UAE law requires specific notice periods, approval, or consent for contract modifications, the Company will comply with those requirements before implementing the change.
